Was your WhatsApp account closed? This is what really happened with the application

Android users reported that their session was closed and the same application asked them to re-verify their phone number to enter WhatsApp. What happened to the app?

The WhatsApp service, an instant messaging application for iOS and Android mobile devices, has been very unstable in recent days. A group of users reported an unexpected and suspicious logout of their accounts.

As expected, this problem alarmed many Internet users, mainly Android users . It happens that in the reports it was mentioned that when the session was closed, the same service asked them to re-register their phone number to enter the platform.

While many claimed that it was an attack carried out by one or more hackers, the WABetaInfo portal issued a statement to reassure the community and explain what was happening with WhatsApp.

According to the website specialized in the content of the messaging app, the suspicious logout on Android was due to a bug in the application itself and not due to a hacking attack that tried to seize your private data.

Through the Twitter account, the people of WABetaInfo mentioned that the problem had already been solved by the developers of the service and that they could now access their accounts with complete peace of mind.

On the other hand, from Computer Hoy they mention that this bug affected thousands of people, although some comment that after having closed the warning window they were automatically logged in again.

However, it also emerged that another group of people were forced to re-verify their phone number to be able to communicate with their friends, family, co-workers and partner through the app.

Despite all the complaints presented by the same Internet users on the different social networks, the good thing is that the WhatsApp developers have already found the error and now the platform is working perfectly in its version for Android .

WhatsApp how to send photos and videos that are deleted after the recipient opens them?
WhatsApp has just received an update that brings with it one of the most anticipated functions by users. The beta version of the app, available on Android devices , already allows you to send photos and videos that are automatically deleted after the receiver opens them.

As detailed by Wabetainfo, beta testers who download version 2.21.14.3 of WhatsApp will be able to use this tool. It is worth mentioning that other services, such as Snapchat, have already had it for some time.
